I guess it is the combination of the zoom lens and aperture that blurs out the background so nicely into a color that is compatible or has a nice relationship with the green of the bush.

I know that Bolivia has a variety of climates ranging from tundra of the high mountain plains to the semi -tropical and tropical climates of the lower areas. There must be quite a variety of bird life, yet this shows the beauty of the more common birds as well.

Glenn, your bird photography is consistently excellent and I enjoy clicking on each of your threads as I just know its going to be more than worth it. I rarely if ever shoot birds, but I so admire a good photograph of one that is so well executed. Please keep them coming.
